The process of communication is defined here with special reference to problems likely to face the clergyman. Communication is discussed both as an abstract principle and as an applied science. The theological view of communication is put forward. The learning process is viewed from the vantage point of various learning theories: conditioned response, acquisition of habit, and development of competencies. Methods for using printed material and audiovisual resources are outlined. Media which have special usefulness to a churchman are discussed in more detail. (JY)
